Genetic Blood disorders

Is it possible to be diagnosed with a clotting disorder at 40 years old?

[Dr. Kokil Mathur]

Hi!
Yes, clotting disorders due to hemophilia, protein deficiency, lupus and other autoimmune disorders, thrombus formation and post immobilization or surgery are diagnosed in adulthood. Also, some inherited clotting disorders present late in adult life if there is a recessive gene. Please discuss with your doctor. Take care!
